Surprised we didn't play Boucher this quarter, unless Darko understands the assignment

And you are always there to point it out when he has bad shooting games.

He & Gradey should be swapping minutes.

Unlike Gradey, JaKobe still finds a way to be impactful even if his jumper isn’t falling.

It would really hurt us. I mean, if you want to tank then it's a great strategy.


That’s based on nothing but you liking Gradey more.

Looks very indecisive in this game, now look at Zion just bulldozes every play you know what he's gonna do but can you stop it. Idiots here not wanting Zion because he's lazy and fat, a motivated Zion is an absolute offensive superstar in the league. In fact I will trade Barnes just to pair Zion up with RJ, talent is talent.

Raps saw the score for the Lakers Hornets game and decided to switch things up.

But I only like him more right now because he's a better player right now. Yes Jakobe is a better defender, but that's it.

Brown is big part of this team playing competitive basketball again. Having his minutes consistently is making a difference.

Now we're tanking Boucher's value.

That's why I don't get the continuous complaining about his flaws, if he didn't have them we would have never got him as essentially a salary dump.

Lol so therefore it's not worth talking about?


probably not? it's unlikely he ever develops a mid range game and it's probably a waste of time to work on it anyways if it's not something he will even use much or have be an efficient shot

I don’t agree…Gradey came out scorching hot to start the season but BEYOND cooled off and since then JaKobe has outplayed him for the most part.
